After Hurricane Irma’s devastating strike, first thoughts went toward the well-being of those in the Florida Keys who lost homes, livelihoods, boats and possessions.

Then came more selfish thoughts: What about the hideaways, touristy spots, restaurants and resorts stretched throughout the chain of islands that belonged to all of us? The No Name Pub and all those dollar bills that visitors stapled to its ceilings and walls. Robbie’s Marina, where families have stopped to feed tarpon for decades. Tiki bars where we sipped rumrunners and piña coladas on weekend getaways. What survived? What was destroyed?
